Although this website is dedicated to the Colt AR weapon system, I have the overall goal of helping to spread the message of everything that is Colt. This video is 17:21 and provides some really interesting insight into the King Cobra that released just a few weeks ago.

All that was accomplished today was adding four photos of a new-in-package Colt H3 buffer that I bought for my Colt IAR. You can see the other photos in the Part Variations/Buffers section.

Today I kind of bounced around with what was added. I worked on the menu structure some by adding LE6940 variants pages to the menu list. I have not added photos of technical data yet. I add some 7.62×51 content, added SCAR A, B and C to the prototype section, added stock variation pages to the parts variations section. Photos were added for the Colt Ti-7 SOPMOD stock. Lastly, I identified carbine menu’s as being either 5.56 or 7.62. The rifle menu has been indicated as 5.56. I will add a 6.5 Creedmore menu when details become available from Colt. The 6.5 product listings I find online are not following uniform model numbers.

Today I uploaded 39 photos of an early production LE6920 SOCOM I (KAC Rail) (Blue Label). This rifle is from the original 2013 production run. I do not have any idea how many were shipped in the blue label boxes but this is the first one that I have seen since researching Colt AR’s over the last 18 months or so.

Tonight I added the LE6920-FBP1 FBI contract overrun carbine to the listing. There are additional item specifications and photos shown in the section.

Tonight I added some additional LE6920 designations to the LE6920 series listing. I added the AR6720 Light Weight Tactical Carbine listing with some photos.

Our friends at Looserounds has posted an update regarding Colt AR products as displayed at the 2019 SHOT SHOW in Las Vegas. Check it out here: http://looserounds.com/2019/01/23/colt-2019-shot-show/

In 2018 and 2019, Arms Unlimited has been selling exclusive “MK12″ heavy barreled 18” special purpose rifles and upper receiver assemblies. You can see the complete rifle here: https://www.armsunlimited.com/Colt-MK12-HBAR-Semi-Auto-18-Special-Purpose-Rifle-p/mk12-hbar.htm and the upper receiver here: https://www.armsunlimited.com/Colt-MK12-18-inch-Upper-Receiver-Assembly-p/mk12ck-oem2.htm. I have added the available information on these unique offerings to the “Upper Receiver” section and “Rifle” sections here on The Colt AR-15 Resource. The links provided above will likely go inactive once the limited stock is sold out by Arms Unlimited.

I added a variety of additional data today. I added a rough outline of 2017 catalog content, added some detail in the LE6920 category, an added some downloadable user manuals. Building the site will be a long, slow process. More to come.

I became a collector of Colt firearms by accident (yes that happens) when I was deployed in the Middle East in 2017. I purchased my first Colt handgun when I had the opportunity to buy one of the 1000 Colt USMC decommissioned M45A1 Close Quarters Battle Pistol (CQBP) around March or so of 2017. My obsession grew from there. Due to a 30 year career in the United States Army, I have always had an interest in the Colt AR-15. Over my career I have carried and used the Colt M16A1, M16A2, M16A4, M4 and M4A1 Carbine. From about July 2017 to today, 21 January 2019 I have collected 6 Colt AR-15’s and three very limited release Colt upper receiver groups which I assembled into complete firearms using Colt lower receivers.

As I have added to my collection, I realized that there is not a ‘one stop shop’ for information on Colt AR-15’s. There are many Facebook groups that discuss the collecting of Colt firearms but a large majority are pistol collectors. Additionally, Facebook, in their war on gun owners are deleting firearm groups at random completely wiping out all data collected in the groups. There are a lot of limited production Colt AR-15 items that have been produced over the last several years that nobody has captured information on. So, my goal is to start collecting data here on Colt AR-15’s, both standard production and limited production, and somehow organizing it so that it is quick to reference and searchable. I am going to start with current production items that information is readily available on and work my way backwards to 1961. Wish me luck. More to follow.
